About

I am deeply passionate about exploring the climate landscape and developing innovative solutions that drive trends towards a sustainable future. My focus extends beyond technological and business perspectives, as I also prioritize justice and equity. I believe that addressing climate change requires a holistic approach that considers the diverse impacts on various communities and ensures that sustainable practices benefit everyone. By integrating these principles, I aim to contribute to a future where environmental responsibility and social equity go hand in hand, creating a balanced and just world for all. At iii, I’d bring my knack for problem-solving, both in and out of the classroom, along with a bunch of climate change facts and stories. I have a radically optimistic outlook and love meeting new people and exchanging stories. Plus, I’m great at communication and teamwork, making collaboration enjoyable and effective.

Why MIIPS?

The MIIPS program grabbed my attention not just because it's a mix of different disciplines (business, design and engineering) but also because of the fact that it allows me to work with peers from these backgrounds. After working in the industry for 3 years, i truly believe that a deeper understanding of products/ service design can be achieved through a course like MIIPS which allows me to dive into the 3 main pillars of building a successful product.

Education

Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology, Industrial Design

Experience

Digital product designer Ather Energy, Banglore

What type of role are you looking to obtain after you graduate?

My professional philosophy is all about continuous learning, having a customer-centric approach, and a belief that collective intelligence trumps individual brilliance. Building trust is key for me. I am hoping to obtain a role that allows me to drive impact through product design and strategy.
